Just out of curiosity; is this an oil painting or an acrylic painting?

Big congratulations to you, Marina - what a wonderful, well-deserved award! I am so happy for your success! (I'm also envious that you were at the convention. I also really enjoy watching other artists at work.)

Congratulation Marina!
I hope this will generate work for you, but I am sure it has already given you a lot of self confidence and inspiration for keeping up with this success.

Mary Jane, Linda ,Alex ,Ilaria : thank you very much !
Yes I was very excited, and very intimidated too at the beginning, I was feeling like a baby in comparison with some much more experienced portrait artists... But what a nice way to celebrate my first year of painting portraits!
( Sorry to tell you, Alex, I never worked hard : only had a lot of fun )
One of the things that struck me was the enthousiasm, the deep joy of the artists when they were creating in front of us. Some get really excited by the curve of an eyelid, some other by a special bone, or a shadow...
I think that as long as you feel this enthousiasm, there's no limit...
Judson : it's the Oil critique section, and it's an oil painting.

Marina-- Congratulations! The changes in the update are subtle but so right !  Excellent likeness. . . and lovely photo of you with the painting. It would make a great shot on an 'about the artist' page on your website. . .
